captain Kuro: hes awesome, so far my favorite "bad guy" Hawkeye: Didn't get to see much of them but what i did see.. cool.

Captain Smoker was pretty cool to.

Not quit sure about something... now correct me if im wrong...

The Seven Warlords: They were powerful pirates who now work for the government?

Yes, they're are. It's funny really... The weakest Warlord also has the second highest former bounty out of them all. While the strongest, most important, and in my opinion coolest, Warlord has a mid-range former bounty.
